| ����������� So you want to step up and deliver some pain to me huh? You want to bring down some heavy duty despair on me? Is that what you want? Well I got news for you, buddy! You may think that you can bring me down with all your little challenges and trials. You may believe that my life is a small ship to be engulfed and destroyed by your storms and waves of daily tribulations. You might even secretly believe that somewhere along the line, if you try really hard, I will submit to your hardships and troubling attempts on my emotions. You may think all these things, but boy are you ever wrong! ����������� So bring it on, fate! Let's see what you got! Let's test the might and fury of your big, bad twists and turns. Let's see how much you can accomplish in your attempts to drill into my world and rip everything positive about it away. I'll bet you won't even faze me. ����������� Go ahead and throw the worst kind of weather you can at me on the day of my driver's test. Be a tough fate and bring down that bad ass blizzard on top of my head while I am trying my hardest to achieve a goal that could possibly bring me more chances at happiness. Let's see if you have what it takes to push me over the limit. I'll bet your hand comes up a bust, and I stand victoriously with a good old black jack! ����������� You want to drag me out of bed at four o'clock in the morning on a Friday to send me off to some meaningless and pointless little co-op placement at a job that would never hire me? You go right ahead! I'll smile, sip my hot chocolate, and be ready for the next time! You can't hurt me with such a weak arsenal of pathetic attempts on my emotional stability! I've got more energy to withstand you with than all the megatons of nuclear weaponry that have been detonated on this planet in the last five hundred years! ����������� I'll bet you wonder sometimes if, in the end, the fact that I am not very good at interacting with others will one day drive me to madness. Ha! I laugh at that idea--that foolish notion! Not everyone was meant to be the most popular kid in school you know! Besides, despite what you may attempt to arrange, I do meet people from time to time! I even occasionally make a few friends here and there. You call the induction of an abundance of bashfulness into my personality a way of trying to steer my life into despair? You're pathetic! ����������� So bring it on fate! Let's see what you can do! Let's see you tighten the grip of compulsive worrying around my brain and watch to see if any solid anguish comes forth from my eyes! You might think you've got it easy simply because I am always thinking and concerned about school work, responsibilities, chores, and other things that I feel I have to do! Well I don't see how that makes your job any easier, because I do all those things, and usually quite well too. Hell, I don't see it as a handicap at all; it?s a useful tool! Guess you struck out on that one! ����������� Oh, so you are going to bring out the really big guns huh? Going to bring the hammer down and ship me off to Ingersoll after three of the best years of my life in Sarnia? Wow... you are pretty freaking impressive man! You really struck me right where it hurt on that one! Pulling me away from the best of friends and sticking me in some little hick town with nothing and nobody I know? Yeah... pure genius pal! I'll bet you thought that that sort of thing would just shred every essence of my contentment to pieces. WRONG! Come on man. You really thought that I would come apart for that? You must think I am pretty weak and gullible. ����������� I guess you sort of got the hint that tearing me from my old friends wasn?t quite enough, because you thought you would be REALLY ballsy and take my Jen away from me too! Oh you are the man now, right? "Hey, I just stole the jewel of his life from him, and he will not be able to survive without her!" Is that what you think? You think that because I had taken from me the most precious thing in my life that I would just curl into a puny little fetal position and weep? Maybe you stole an extra sweet little thought in thinking that I was going to end my life over your immense plan for my destruction. Awww... too bad fate. Dan Charrington doesn't give up that easily. I'll take your bullsh*t and swallow it hard, tears streaming, and still live on. Sorry about your luck! ����������� So I guess you've got a bit of a challenge ahead of you don't you? You'll have to come up with some more bumps and pitfalls to try and trap my adventurous soul in won't you? If you think you got what it takes to bring me down to the dark recesses of true suffering and depression, then bring it on! Let's see what you got, fate, because I have to tell you, so far you have yet to even dent the mighty D.C! |
| Dan's Notes: Just because I wrote this, doesn't mean I have taken a side on the whole fate versus free will thing. I used fate more or less as a character in this piece, not as some abstract philosophical lifestyle. This was my attempt to get away from a lot of the stuff I write simply to try and get sympathy from the reader. |
